>Description:
In sys.mk, the variable CXXFLAGS is based on CFLAGS, but with several options excluded. This already indicates that there might be something wrong with that approach. A much cleaner solution would be to define a variable containing the common flags and then add them to both CFLAGS and CXXFLAGS.

I noticed that when adding very strict checks to the pkgsrc wrapper to see which packages accept CFLAGS and CXXFLAGS from the user (mk.conf) and which don't.
